Sad reality in Thailand, ladyboys 

Beach at our resort in Phuket. 

Day trip to the Phi Phi islands

Viking Cove, people come here to live for two years and collect swallow nests for swallow nest soup which apparently is very expensive.what's the deal with this soup, these swallow nests are made from swallow saliva.

Getting ready to go snorkelling

What a place!! 

The two of us before we went in for a swim.  

That black stuff in the water is fish, thousands of them. 

Alex at Monkey beach 

Phi Phi Don where the Tsunami hit, there sued to be a lot of hotels here but they got wiped out when the waves hit. So now there's only a few hotels on the island in comparison to before. 

The main beach at Phi Phi island 

Scenes from Phi Phi Don. (the larger island) 

Alex snorkelling off Phi Phi island. The waters were crystal clear. We even saw Nemo down there. We're actually being quite serious, we did see him. 

Getting in to the shade for awhile, having our lunch, what a view. Paradise! 

Lunch on Phi Phi Don. We were at the other side of the island as the restuarant they used to use was wiped ou by the Tsunami.

What's happening next

Well we're just back from teenstreet. It was an amazing week, where everyone encountered God. We will post some photos as soon as we can. The adventure in our journey is that we are off to Thailand with the college group on a missions trip on the 1st of September and we will return on the 21st. Both myself and Alex are staying on for an extra week and taking advantage of our paid ticket and travelling onto Phuket for a weeks break. That's why we'll be gone for 3wks. We and the team are all excited about the trip back to Pattaya and look forward to seeing what God will show us and do this time while we're there. We consider it a pure joy and honour to be able to go and serve in whatever way we can out there in Thailand. God has certainly blessed us with many andventures over the last two years. Thanks for sharing those journeys with us and for looking at our memories. Please keep us in your prayers. Linda & Alex xo
